I saw the Jack and Joker trailer before but didn’t really get interested at the time. I binge-watch a lot of BL series daily, and since I was running out of shows to watch, I gave it a shot just to kill the time, haha! But honestly, it didn’t disappoint at all.
This series is a total package: drama, humor, romance, action, you name it. I was hooked, and there was never a dull moment. I also loved the visuals and the OST. And of course, YinWar’s chemistry? Absolutely top-notch as always.
One thing that did bug me a little was how Joker was introduced as this talented thief who steals from corrupt elites and gives back to the villagers. Sounds cool, right? But they barely showed that side of him. There was only one scene where he actually stole something, and then… nothing. I wish they had explored that storyline more.
As for the supporting characters, my favorite has to be Aran. At first, he came off as spoiled, but he grew on me fast. Total diva energy, but in a fun way! It’s just a bit sad that his relationship with Tattoo didn’t get more development, they had such good chemistry too.
I have watched the Jack and Joker Special too. The ending is definitely open. It might seem like Joker died, but if you stick around after the credits, there’s a surprise scene, he’s alive, lying under a mosquito net and waking up with a startled look when he sees someone. So yeah… could be a setup for season 2. Fingers crossed!
